Mon, 22 Nov 2010 22:39:19 +0000#comment-84184The easy400.net site looks promising. I see a web-page translator reference as well as a message description translator. I got an error when attempting to link to the message translator, but I’d feel confident that the tool actually is available. Contact the web site for info.

Mon, 22 Nov 2010 21:17:40 +0000#comment-84182I have no info on translation tools/products for AS/400s. However, you might investigate web services like TranslateService. It seems possible to retrieve English message text, translate via web service to French and update corresponding messages in the French message file.

I wouldn’t count on it being a rapid process though.

You might also load blocks of English texts into a HTML format and submit the entire page for translation through one of the web-page translators. Some means of retrieving the French text from the translated page would need to be created. Not very satisfactory, but perhaps there is some potential.

If no one comes up with a tool/product suggestion, you might at least make a little progress.
